The Life of Orson

grandpa!

Grandpa David came for a quick visit to help celebrate Orson's first birthday.

Orson had fun playing with Grandpa.

It was nice to see the boys together!

In the mornings, Orson was happy to wake up Grandpa.

Grandpa loves to go on walks (so do Orson & I). We walked to the Rose Garden and up into the west hills. Orson was impressed with his stroller steering.

Lately Orson has become obsessed with computers and so Grandpa showed Orson his laptop.

We loved having you here Gramps! Wish it could've been for longer.

birthday! yay!

Orson's birthday was filled with presents, food and fun.

Orson, Daddy, Grandpa, & I walked over to a pub to meet some friends. (Orson wanted to go on a pub crawl. hee hee.)

Ann & Ayla were the first to arrive... Happy Birthday to Ann! She & Orson share a birthday!

Leah & Tim came next... thank you for the cutie monkey! (Orson loves it and the tag attached to it:)

Yeder, Naomi, & Micah came to celebrate as well! They gave Orson a singing phone which makes him dance.

Orson was in a pretty good spirits until we lit the candle...

He couldn't quite figure out why we were all smiling and singing loudly to him...

By the time we finished singing and the candle was blown out, Orson said "enough!"

I love the expression on Micah's face... (why is he crying and when can we eat cake?!)

Maybe Orson was just trying to get some laughs.

Daddy took him outside and calmed him down but the night out ended shortly after... it was 8pm (Orson's bedtime of late). We walked home, got comfy, and enjoyed being one.
